Saudi Nuclear Deal, Morgan Mouse Mayhem, and More
The third week of February 2019 is over, and as always on the WHIP Weekly News Crackdown, we’ve got a wide range of local and government news – now with nuclear deals, lawsuits, scary AI, and more! On Temple’s campus, we recently saw a $1.5 Million scholarship fund created for first generation college students. This may balance out some of the pandemonium surrounding Morgan Hall’s recent mouse incident.
